Besides providing certain welfare services for our people, such as health and insurance benefits, motor vehicle schemes, subsidised meals, educational programmes such as those on AIDS awareness, Ajax Fiori also places a strong emphasis on its social responsibilities as a company. Some of its undertakings in this regard are:
Tree Planting
At our factory in Doddaballapur, we have always placed an emphasis on growing trees and plants. In fact most guests who visit our factory are requested to plant a tree on the factory premises. Till date, trees such as Silver Oak, Teak, Kadamba, Ashoka and Champa have been planted by over 30 guests, from different parts of the world.
No Plastic Zone
In keeping with maintaining ecological harmony, we have a ‘No Plastic Zone’ area at our factory. This green area contains a large variety of trees, plants and bird baths.
Rain Water Harvesting
Ajax Fiori working together with Mr. Ayappa Masagi and the Water Literacy Foundation has implemented a Rain Water Harvesting System at our factory premises.
